No, this is not good. It's already 11. Leaving me with approx 10 hours to 203 mid terms. And I am here. Not with my books, but here.

Sheesh, what is to become of myself? I think the less subjects I take, the more I take things for granted, eg: studying last minute for exams. And mind you, I have resulted to only reading the summary of each chapter, cuz, u come to think of it, how is it possible to cover 200+ pages and still be awake enough for 100 MCQ's tmr?!

Note: I really do not dread exams as much as I dread assignments. Anyhow...

I just came back from Facebook. I know, I know. And, hm... I stumbled upon something I probably shouldn't have and I feel a tad bit cheated and upset, but again, it's exams tmr, so, the impact of feeling cheated and the feeling of upset-ness hasn't quite allowed itself to dwell into me just yet. Now that is for the good cuz I really do not need any negative energy flowing in me for the next couple of days.

Oh yeah yeah, of random-ness. I was a the Yahoo! homepage (Inbox page to be exact) and I saw this Barisan Nasional video advert. Nothing spectacular lah kan? No, I didn't think so too. But, someone looked familiar, very. So, I moved my mouse onto the video box thinge again... Wahlah, it's Mellissa!! HMC 2006 President, Mellissa! So... I dunno, amazing perhaps?

Yeah, what else, dah tak ingat dah. Old age old age.

Oh yes yes, wanted to talk more about what happened in class today but not only will it take up slightly too much of my last minute studying time, I believe it will also start making me feel stupid all over again, so yes, I'll skip that for another day. But those in class would probably know which part this was... so, shhh.

I should really go back to my book.

Oh Michael, I think Laura's cheating on you! She's with me tonight! And I bet she's with many others too!!

Guys!!!

No, it's Guy and Girls!!

ERB has been approved!

Walah, so happy....
The hard, last minute, very rushed, very frustrating, absolutely mind injuring proposals for 201 has been approved!!
Yay man!! Yay man sounds like Amen, but both will do! =P

I'm absolutely so happy!! If I have my phone with me now, I'd called u guys one by one and thank you for sticking together through it all!! Thank you for not killing one another though I would have probably been the first person you'd want to kill... during that crazily stressful period!

Anyway, yes, thank u so very much you guys, I can't even remember who did what or what did who but anyways, it's all good!!

Yay! The future doesn't look all that gloomy after all!!

Apologies for the lack of intellectual-ness of this post. It was a very spontaneous / unprepared but happy one.

My phone has passed away. It departed some time between 1am to 9am this morning. I am sure it passed away peacefully because it just... blacked out.

May you Rest In Peace.

So, msg's that has been sent to me, I have not seen; phone calls made to me, I'm sure they didn't get any further than the 'Nombor yg anda dial, tidak dapat dihubungi...' thing. I apologise for the inconvenience though I believe I'm the one suffering the most without the technology people take for granted these days.

Anyhow, this is what Heng strongly suggest I get in replacement of my dear deceased Nokia.

Sony Ericsson W300i. Looks pretty cool, it comes in white / black. But I really haven't decided yet. Maybe it's good to not have a phone for the next few days. Maybe.

---------------------

Metrojaya Members Sales! It was crazy enough, I spent quite a bit... Opps.

Today's occasion apart from the above mentioned sales, was to celebrate our dears' 20th!

So, Happy Belated 20th Cheam Hui Ying!!
May you have all the good that life has to offer!! Love you much!


---------------------

On a side note, this is what some Malaysians do when they have nothing else better to do. It's sad, very sad.

Despite my blog title being Typically Malaysian, I believe we are better off than conteng-ing the seats of free public transport. I mean, come on already, how else is Malaysia going to be a wonderful place if humans living in this country cannot even keep their hands to themselves instead of making a mess out of perfectly fine objects? To all those inconsiderate people, just, stop it lah!!

I can go on with what mat salleh's or guai lo's or foreigners have to say about Malaysia, with that I mean the not-so-good stuff I've been hearing, it's really not very nice one loh... But I believe you also probably already know what is it they have to say lah, so, I won't go on about it. As much as I want to 'be proud to be a Malaysian', I sometimes have to agree with the negative comments others make.

Just look around lah! Free bus ride to Mid Valley from Bangsar LRT also got people conteng, u tell me how? How to convince people that Malaysia is a very nice place to visit / live in? I don't know.

Okay lah, vented out some of the anger, let's hope the elections this year will be for the better of the country and the people.

I like Mandy's post very much! Go figure...

Strictly speaking, I shouldn't be here at all. For no 1. I should be getting ready to shower so that... no 2. we can get started with 203 asap. But, I couldn't help it. Frankly, I think a quick one would do no harm... =P

So, today started off pretty slowly, with me getting up late cuz I've got no classes- the only luxury I seem to enjoy for taking less subjects this semester... And then it was going to banks and running errands with Heng around the area. After which, I reluctantly followed Heng to pick Wesley up and again reluctantly followed Heng to One U to get some stuff from Camp 5, which I quickly started to not regret.

Anyway, here's why. We spent a total of RM123 to get the equipments we needed, only to find out later on that the 7m rope we got was a tad bit too short. Nevermind that, we somehow managed anyway. And from there on, it was absolute fun!

Slack lining.

Note: Mike was there too, unfortunately, no pictures of him slack lining cuz he was the man behind the camera!

Anyway, just briefly how all this came about... My coach (the sailing one) kinda introduced this to us (Heng, Seu, Yvonne and myself) the last time he was here during one of the training sessions and he was like: I've got this game... but I need 2 trees and grass, do you guys know of anywhere nearby?

And so it all begin... It's hell loads of fun, seriously, but you have to not mind getting all dirty and getting spank by the rope occasionally, Kevin and Mike can be judges.

Anyway, yeah, that was it. And I have been thinking that my previous two post inviting people to come sailing was a big big failure, but thank you Darryl and Kevin for at least making my attempt the least bit fruitful! You really have no idea how glad I am that you guys are coming...

And with that said, I'll end my post for today and go shower before Mandy starts hating me secretly... Ahahaha... (Now this sounds very familiar).

Heng Li welcomes you with a big smile.
Disclaimer: I made this up myself.

I have never loved the Internet so much! Seriously!

Anyway, invitation still remains, those interested to sail, wanna know what it's all about, wanna get a nice tan, or have nothing else better to do for the coming weekend, please do refer to my earlier post.

Looking forward to seeing you....!!

Today was, I would say very unpredictable. Yes, unpredictable is the word. Why? You may ask. Actually I also don't know, if I knew why then it wouldn't be unpredictable anymore kan?

Anyway, let's hope the happiness is here to stay. I hope very much.

*Sobs*

This is what happens when you stupidly enough leave liquids even with the slightest amount of alcoholic content in a car, under the very hot sun, for well, long enough.

A very cacat-ed looking bottle of Disney's pink Eskulin.

Training today wasn't as fruitful as I thought it would have been. I wanted to come home feeling all tired with muscles telling me that I've overdone it again. But to my dismay, there wasn't much wind but loads of current, which made training really quite redundant. But nevertheless, it was fun to have a newcomer on the boat! And best of all, she had fun, at least I hope she did! =)

Tmr will be the beginning of the club series for the new year, we all want to win, it's fun to win!, so, cheer for us and if you wanna come by to see what sailing is all about, the club is having it's annual Everything That Floats regatta next weekend. All is (are) welcomed, no sailing experience needed! If you feel like coming by, you can
no 1. Click here and go to upcoming events, to find out more
OR
no 2. Come ask me directly whether here or in college or anyhow you please. =)

-----------------

Just got back from a yummylicious dinner with dad, mum, Heng and Seu. I think I somehow managed to over-eat even without having my meal with rice. How sad. Hehe, we had zhu shao (pork knuckle), tin kai (frog?), spinach in soup, guai dou (ghost beans?), and orange pai kuat (orange pork ribs)- this I highly recommend, except I have no clue where's this place we had dinner at. =X. Anyway, nothing beats a good dinner lah, so, yeah.

So, yup, did I mention life's been hectic? Well, it surely has. And unfortunately, it will be that way for another good 2+ months. No, actually for the rest of the time I'll be spending in HELP, *calculates manually*, that'll be approx... another 22 months. Gosh. Gosh!

Man! What did I get myself into? Time to look for group mates for 204 ERB due on Mon.

My toilet door has long been re-opened.
With a fee of RM40 that is. =/
*inserts note*
Never ever lock your door from the inside ever ever again.

So, yes, I am very tired but no longer depressed.
At least now things are working out, slow but gradual, better than nothing at all.
I have a feeling that it'll be stressful from now till the end of the semester, flip open diary only see DUE DATE's all over the pages...
Why do I even bother lah sometimes?!

Should I or should I not?! What if... What if not...
Fine.

And yeah, yesterday while waiting inside the car for the 3 (Sharon, Mandy and Betsy) to complete their mission's, I was sms-ing my dad who was still in the Middle East. At some point, the conversation was something like this:

Dad: Why haven't you been sms-ing me about what's going on at home?
Me: Cuz my dad doesn't print money and I have to pay for the sms's that I send out...
Dad: Well, u must know ur priorities...

.
.
.

Later on..

Me: So, I hope you've got souvenirs for me from there.
Dad: I thought you didn't want anything?! So is there anything you want in particular?
Me: Hm.. anything but necklaces, perfumes and stuffs that's too expensive.
Dad: Okay, so... T-shirts? Key chain? ...... Hotel towel, hotel bath soap??
Me: How about a T-shirt that says - My dad's a cheapskate?!
Dad: Well, does the photocopy machine at home print money?!

My dad can be so cute sometimes.

Lastly, guy(s) and girls!! I think we all deserve a pat on the back for our efforts today! It wasn't superb, it wasn't anything spectacular but we did pull it off! We actually did! So let's be happy and improve from here on, alright?! And thank you for sticking together through it all... =P

Back to stressful times... till the very end.

Damn, my toilet door is still bloody locked from the inside. I don't know how it happened, I don't really wanna know how it did either. All I want is to have my toilet back! *cries* Get me a thief/robber/locksmith/firefighter/whatever and whoever as long as he/she can open the door for me... Ugh! I wish my dad was here instead of enjoying the sunset in some desert in the Middle East...

Guerlain, Paris.

Happylogy NOT lah~

I think my computer speakers are becoming screwed. The left and right speakers are alternating the level of the volume at random intervals.

My leg has been kejang-ing the whole of today. Mild kejang's. Too much gym maybe. So should I take tmr off or should I go for a lighter session? I dunno, flip coin later lah. Nah, I think I'll skip. I shall.

I want a new phone, I want an I-Pod, I want sushi, I want new Yoga pants, I want to go to somewhere cold, I want to buy a hula hoop, I want to watch Jumper and 27 Dresses, I want to see that email in my mailbox when I check my mails, I want to get my Scholarship application done, I want to drink coffee... *makes myself a cup instantly*. *back with coffee* Most of all, I want to wake up tmr morning and be able to use my toilet!

I need to start getting serious with assignments and exams. Need to, more like a MUST.

It Must Be Love

Nah, I disagree. Nothing is a MUST, there's always a choice, in this case,
I think it's the right course of action.

Time to study a little before crashing.

My coffee taste awful, *walks to the toilet with the intention of flushing it down the toilet bowl*, shits, toilet door's locked.

From my balcony:

Periwinkle in Pink & Monochrome.

Vittoria Coffee Mug on the edge of wall.

Wesley's white school shoes.

My dad left for Dubai this morning.
My mom left for Alor Setar yesterday.

And here I am, at home, cause training was indirectly canceled, by ourselves.
And, I am dead bored that I am getting depressed again!
It's been like this for the whole of the past week.
What the heck.
WHAT THE HECK LAH!

Have I mentioned how much I hate ants?! Well, I don't actually hate them except that if they keep appearing on my study table, I will end up killing each of them one by one to the extend that I'll actually end up hating them. And they freaking smell like Shieldtox!

Yesterday, Heng mentioned something about some statistics on cockroaches. I believe it was something like this :" For each cockroach you see in your home, there's at least another 100 more invading some part of your house." I wonder if it's the same for ants?

And why on Earth do they smell like Shieldtox anyway?! I suspect they're immune to Shieldtox already lah, they now have the Shieldtox antibody in their blood/genetics, that's why when they are squashed they smell that way.

You can be prepared to see another post later in the day... because I am so so bored and I don't feel like studying at all...

I had two almost near tragic scenarios during training today. Almost near tragic.

Once was when I somehow got my arm caught in between the dumb kicker and spinnaker pole, for a short moment, I thought I was going to lose my arm.
The second was when I somehow became smart enough to 'place' my head near the spinnaker block which almost ripped a good part of my hair off my head.

All I have to say is....




..... Phew!

I am very sleepy but I can't sleep yet cuz my stomach is full from dinner which just ended 1/2 hour(s) ago.

Feeling very stupid today, bet Mandy feels the same!

=/

Mandy, 'liquid diet' down the drain.
Had lamb curry, sausages and cinnamon bun as soon as I got home.
And COFFEE.

=S

Why am I just not happy?

I have not quite prepared my more matured and sophisticated post but it was really generally going to be about what I intended to do for the future (in terms of education, career, relationships and what not.). But it hadn't quite come through just yet. So that'll have to wait...

Anyway, considering it's Valentines tmr and unfortunate me, I'll be spending almost the entire day in the lecture hall, so I'll just wish all the couple's reading this a very very Happy...

For all the singles, maybe and perhaps Cupid's aiming the arrow at you (us) right now, who knows.

Have a good one all...!!

Just a quick and random one for today.

Was blog hopping and came by one friends' blog that had an entry about the Edison and Gillian scandal. Usually, I don't bother nor would I give a damn, BUT, I like Edison and Gillian!! I mean, they're like the Asian version of Zac and Vanessa. Hm... You get where am I coming from kah? Yeah, so it's kinda sad lah. I'm lost for words lah actually.

Firstly, as wrong as it may be, people wanna have sex then let them lah...!! Why must go and post all over the Internet and invade people's private lives right?

Secondly, although I came up with the earlier statement just 2 seconds ago, I still somehow cannot understand why Edison & Gillian - or other celebrities for that matter, would do such things. Publicity? Pleasure? Or what leh?? Cannot understand.

I know I'm kinda contradicting myself but blah, I dunno lah...

Of course, there's also the possibility that some crazy nutcase out there sengaja wanna create havoc in the showbiz business. If it's true then these people deserve to have their faces printed on the first page of every paper and have rotten tomatoes thrown at them everywhere they go lah...

So it didn't turn out to be as short as I expected, but oh well. Now, quickly go play Kiap-Kiap and tell me ur highest score at the end of it okay?!

Tomorrow we shall foresee a more matured and sophisticated entry.

I was, or rather is, so bored. And the best part is, I chose to be bored. I could've gone out with my dad to test drive cars, or I could have gone out for tea, or I could have... lots of could have's. But, no, I'd rather die of boredom in my tiny little corner. What to do, one of those malas days lah. Just don't feel like doing anything and yet can't help but complain about how bored I am.

Anyway, I woke up this morning to my mom's sms:

Good am sleepy head. Enuf beauty sleep? Left a cheque n yr cash on yr comp. Since dad on leave, u all most probably wud go bfast. So pls bank in cheque at Alliance Bank..... Tks.

Aiseh, my alarm was only due an hour after the sms. Some more it was the 'carry out your daughter duty' kinda sms. Spoil my morning. But nevertheless, CNY kan, k lah, went for breakfast with dad and banked in mom's cheque and settled some of my own stuff.

And that's pretty much all I've been doing the whole of today. My gosh, this post is so boring. Because it's so boring, I figured I'll bring in some of yesterdays fun into today...

Yup, went house hopping with the CF bunch... Maybe that explains why I am so reluctant to leave home today. I've spending too much time away from home. That's why. I'm brilliant.

I just received a call from another bunch. Since I'm so reluctant to go out, they've decided to come to me, so considerate kan...?! Bah, we all know it's for the angpau's, but then again, I don't really mind, it's not my money, and I oh-so-need people to come cure my boredom without needing me to leave home! So hah! problem solved. Oh well, got to go get ready to welcome people.

See ya later!

Chinese New Year more than just receiving angpau's and eating my ass off...
Sigh. My 1 and a half hours in the gym today is as good as none.

The past few days have been one of those periods whereby I simply can't help myself from thinking about the future. Things like, what am I going to be 10 years from now?! 20 years from now?! And so on.

Have you not thought about it?

It seems to me that Chinese New Year is also the time to reflect, review and revise plans from the past, to the present for the future.

Chinese New Year more than just receiving angpau's and eating my ass off...

I don't wanna grow up!

* edited.

Songs I'm currently hooked onto!
Enjoy... and Gong Hei Fatt Choi to all out there celebrating Chinese New Year!!

First time listening to these on my blog cuz I already have them in my com, and I realized that something is wrong with some of them, so just go youtube/imeem them instead.

Leona Lewis - Bleeding Love (Incomplete version.)


Mika - Happy Ending (Gets kinda 'crack-y' at the end part.)


Jonas Brothers - When You Look Me In The Eyes


Leona Lewis - Take A Bow


BAY - Saturday Night


Hugh Grant & Haley Bennet - Way Back Into Love (Something is wrong with this one.)


There' s more but have a good listen to these first!!

Again, Happy Chinese New Year to all!! =)

I am so bored of doing nothing. Not that I have nothing to do but I just don't feel like doing any of them and I'm feeling dead bored for not doing them. Sheesh!

I just received my Feb issue of Seventeen, ripped the envelope open, argh! no wait, more like argh?, guy (I meant boy lah, the male species) on the cover?! I reserve my comments on what entered my mind that instance.

I think I should either start cleaning my room, or, I can drink my Malaysian version of hot chocolate and finish my latest book Rachel Gibson's - It Must Be Love. Or, I can continue drowning in this state of boredom.

Hm... I shall do something with myself, fast.

Before that, Happy 20th to you from me in Malaysia! =)

Listening to Mika - Relax, Take it easy.
(maybe that's why.)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I do not wish to double post. So I shall pick up from I stopped earlier today...

I finally cleaned my room. Vacuumed, mopped and cleaned. I tell you, I never hated cleaning up my room so much. I guess it's a different feeling when you voluntarily clean up something and when you know you simply have to. But I'm glad I did, one less thing on my to do list. The chocolate was a reward I gave myself for being such a good girl! =)

One thing I have to say, I can totally understand why my brother's go:" Shopping again, but you already have so much clothes."

You see, two of the pictures above display my closet(s), and as u can see, they are almost up to their limits. I'm not saying I have a lot of clothes lah, I'm sure there are girls out there who probably own triple the amount of clothes I have and still say they have very little, but I'm talking about me lah, k?

I have like at least 5 baju kurung's, 5 pair of jeans, 5 formal shirts, 5 jackets, and 5 dresses in the hanger closet. 5 is just the number I came up with, I wasn't going to actually count how many I had, but 5 is a justified number. And I have tonnes of t-shirts (free ones), baby tees, and what not. Skirts, shorts, skirtshorts... so many.

I also cannot tahan myself when I say things like 'I got nothing to wear', 'I need to go shopping', 'I got no proper clothes for yada yada occasion'. Now I gang-ho say lah, you believe in one week from now, I will bising and say one of the lines I just typed?! But really lah, I think it's just a obsession most girls have lah, clothes wor! How to ever have enough?!

So, basically, my conclusion is, I think I need to get rid sell off some of my clothes. No, let me rephrase that, I just had this brilliant idea. I think we (all my female friends who're reading this,) should start a sharing campaign! As in, let's share our closets lah, and whatever our wardrobe has to offer to each other, then we can shop less, have more variety to choose from, and still have the same amount of space in our closets. What more, we save money wei!!

Why not?!

I know this post makes my previous one seem 'insincere'. But I have to say, both are related to me in different ways, and I strongly belief you will be/are able to feel my sincerest concern in the issue I discussed in my previous post. Hence, I'll end today's post also urging you to pray for those lost people out there.

@i Li: Mike, I'm not praying for world peace, I'm praying for the people who needs help!

Pray with me, for them...

I was so close to opening the Infants and Children textbook, so close, but I somehow ended up here. Somehow.

Anyway, I figured that I'll post my Wanted DVD's list up here so if anyone happens to read this, maybe and perhaps I won't need to spend $$$ purchasing them, in other words, if you have any of them, can I borrow?? Please??? Arigatou neh~

1. Too fast too furious (Because Paul Walker is so chun.)
2. The fast and the furious (Because Heng says that this is way better than it's sequel.)
3. Princess Diaries 2
4. Into the Blue (Because it stars Paul Walker and Jessica Alba, both hotness...)
5. 27 Dresses (If you have this, it'll mean it's pirated cuz it's not even showing yet. BUT, I don't mind =P)

On a very different note, I don't know if you have heard or have received the email regarding a female HELP student being nabbed right after she withdrew some money from an ATM machine at PBD (short for Pusat Bandar Damansara, the old immigration office).

Apparently, two guys on a motorbike snatched her bag and her bracelet and also injected her with God knows what. I can't recall how accurate my description is, I deleted the mail after sending it to my friends and family but I don't think it's far from what was stated in the email.

It's things like this that sends shivers down my spine all the time. I'm close to being a paranoid freak, maybe I am, but I can't help it. Things like this are happening all over the place, so close to where we carry out our daily routines, places where we used to think were safe may not be so after all, what more now that it even happens in broad daylight.

It scares me to think that there are people out there who resolve to snatching/robbing/stealing instead of earning an income the right way. I have always thought that begging was a despicable thing to do, but from a different view point, I think maybe begging isn't all that bad after all, at least no one is harmed!

Why, just why?! I simply cannot understand. Why must people become that?! Why must they make themselves figures whom the society hides away from? It certainly cannot be pleasure, nor can it be for the sake of hurting others. It has to be for a reason, but no matter what reason/excuses there is(are), hurting others is just not right. Why can't they understand that and get themselves appropriate jobs, earn a living the right way, and be respected by the society?

Is something that wrong with our education system, or is it our government or is it the lack of attention from home, lack of care and love, or is it peer pressure?! I really truly wonder why people end up choosing this path in life, I'm not very well off myself, I totally understand the value of money, but is snatching a woman's bag and probably her gold necklace going to last you your entire life? No. Is robbing 10 other people's valuables going to last you for as long as you live? No.

It seems now that snatching/robbing is not the only thing these people do. They even inject their victims with probably some numbing liquid/anesthetic (if they're kind enough) to stop their victims from calling for help, it could be some drugs for who knows. And there again, what if the needle was contaminated with some virus/AIDS or something?! It's hard enough to lose your belongings but losing your life too?! Isn't it too much.

Poverty is not an excuse. Begging is already bad, but hey, look. There are people out there who don't have limbs or are born handicapped, yet they're somebody! They try to make something out of themselves. And here we are talking about people with perfect hands and legs and definitely a healthier body compared to those who are less fortunate, who are robbing off people destroying lives of others as well as theirs!

I simply cannot comprehend. Really. If I had a wish to be granted right now, it would be that all those people realizes what they are doing and how much pain they are causing others, and hopefully they'll repent. As much as I know wishes are wishful thoughts, literally, I still can't help wishing. In this case, prayer would be the closest I get.

I hope you pray too, in your own ways, let us all pray that these people will realize that they are meant to do better things in life, and that the society is willing to accept them as long as they admit their past mistakes, accept their due punishment, and then start all over again, this time, to be a better person, one whom they themselves will look up to. Amen.

I know I got a bit carried away with the whole issue but I feel that it's our duty to stand up and reach out though I have no idea how to. Hence, the least I can do is speak up/out what my mind says and let's see how this Psychology degree of mine will benefit me and whoever out there in future...

Let's pray...

Today, I attempted to make my own breakfast.

And,

Not bad an effort for a first timer huh?!

No wait, look again...

.
.
.
.

Because I didn't know it'll hangus so damn fast, I thought, 'k lah, go make Milo first' and I left the sausages to cook by itself and moments later, I smelt smoke, so I ran as fast as I could to save my sausages but I was a lil too late, obviously.

Anyway, I still ate em'. And THEY TASTED PRETTY GOOD LAH okay! Except for the remains lah (hehe!)...

May 'you' rest on peace!
